Subject: [iText-questions] Disappearing text

Hello there,

 

We are using iText version 2.1.4 and some part (in between) of the text created using a Paragraph object is disappearing when the PDF is generated/shown in the browser. This is happening with all browsers and all resolutions.

 

Please find the attached PDF for reference. In this attachment the text “The Four E's to Effectively Working with Burned-Out Parents

(Module #1)” should be “The Four E's to Effectively Working with Resistant and Burned-Out Parents (Module #1)” (bolded part is missing).

 

Please let me know if there’s anything you need. Also, we are not able to reproduce this on our Staging server. It just occurs on production. We have double checked with the iText versions and java code and they are exactly the same.

 

Thanks in anticipation.

 

Regards,

Pranav Thakur

That would be an interesting feature ;-)
We might want to implement this to generate sales.

The word "Resistant" comes from somewhere, maybe the data is
retrieved differently on both systems (different encoding of
the database, different data in the database,...).

The word "Resistant" needs some resources: a font program, or
at least a font metrics file. Maybe these resources are different
on both systems.

These are the most trivial guesses. They don't really apply to
a simple String such as "Resistant"; but as Alexis points out:
this doesn't sound as an iText problem. Something IS different.

The only time I experienced this kind of behavior personally,
was when somebody said the database in the production environment
was identical to the database on the development server. When
I checked, I saw that somebody else had been "testing" on the
production database (corrupting the data).
